About this trial
The objective of the Safety and Efficacy of Endovascular Treatment of Intracranial Aneurysms with Surpass Elite with GUARDian Flow Diverter (GUARD) trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Surpass Elite with Guardian Flow Diverter System (FDS) in the treatment of unruptured, wide-neck saccular or fusiform, intracranial aneurysms (IAs) located on the internal carotid artery (ICA) or its branches.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
Age is ≥18 and ≤80 years at the time of consent
Is located on the internal carotid artery or its branches
Has a wide neck (wide neck typically defined as neck width ≥ 4 millimeter (mm), or dome to neck ratio ≤ 2.0) or no discernible neck
Aneurysm is either saccular or fusiform in nature
Disqualifiers
Has an extradural target aneurysm
Has a target aneurysm in the posterior circulation
Perforator or branch vessel, inclusive of the posterior communicating artery, arises from the target aneurysm body or neck (branches or arteries must arise or connect from the parent vessel separate from the aneurysm or neck to not be excluded from trial)
Has a true bifurcation aneurysm, defined as an aneurysm (saccular or non-saccular) located at a point of vessel bifurcation
